Very true. I just came back from a trip to Mexico. It’s crazy all the different car brands and models available and common in Mexico that are not available to the US. Many of them are BYD, GWM, and other Chinese brands. I converted the msrp price on a billboard for a GWM new SUV and it came out to 22k dollars.

It’s very interesting to see the difference. In Mexico you can buy brand new Nissan work trucks with a manual transmission and long beds with lashing hooks integrated into the bed rails. It’s like they still make vehicles for working people in Mexico....oh wait ...

Can a person drive one of those vehicles across the border?

Congress doesn’t care that we cannot buy such vehicles.

We do not despise Congress enough.
